its simply alot safer and makes more sense to have it lying flat, there's no chance of disc damage then because the disc cant move from its linear motion unlike when its upright.
I had my xbox 360 standing upright for over a year and never had a disc scratched. It'd have to be a pretty strong breeze to make it "wobble". I lay it flat now because I realised the there is some air intake on the bottom which could lead to overheating if left standing upright.
